Question

Which equation is set up for direct use of the zero-factor property? A. 3x2 - 19x - 14 = 0 C.X2 + x = 42 B. (7x + 9)2 = 3 D. (3x - 2)(- 2) = 0

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The zero-factor property states that if ab=0, then either a = 0 or b = 0 (or both). A product of factors is zero if and only if one or more factors is zero.

From these options only B and D have factors, but B equals to 3. In D we have that (3x-2) = 0 or the other factor is zero (or both)

Answer:

The correct answer is option D
